I have a Walther PPK/S 9mm kurz pistol with the serial number 146xxx S, along with two magazines with pinky extensions and a cleaning rod. I have the original box and an undated test target with the gun’s serial number.
I have read a number of blogs and other material about the gun and would like to confirm with anyone willing assist what I think I know about my gun.
FACTS:
LEFT SIDE OF SLIDE
- Muzzle-end of slide bears the Walther ribbon logo
- Beneath reads: “Made in W. Germany”
- Breach end of slide reads:
“Carl Walther Waffenfabrik Ulm/Do.” (1st line)
“Modell PPK Cal. 9mmkurz” (2nd line).
RIGHT SIDE OF SLIDE
- Muzzle-end of slide reads INTERARMS (1st line) and Alexandria Virginia (2nd line) both words are stamped over their star logo
- Breach-end of the slide at its bottom edge is stamped the German eagle over N (proof mark of House of Ulm)
CHAMBER (exposed through ejection portal)
- Stamped “71” (born on date), a deer antler, and the German eagle over N
RIGHT SIDE OF FRAME
- Serial # is stamped vertically along the edge of the plastic stock.
Along with other things I have read, I believe this gun was manufacture in Manurhin, France and returned to Germany for assembly, thus the “Made in W. Germany” mark on the left side of the slide. I believe the born-on-date is 1971. The gun was shipped to the U.S.A. to Internet Arms in Alexandria, VA for sale.
